Weinstein Reversed Again, This Time in NYC?s Suit Against Gun Makers

Brooklyn federal district Judge Jack Weinstein is known for getting assigned huge class actions with billions at stake. He?s also known for getting reversed by his colleagues on the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. In the latter respect, the month of April has been a doozie. On April 3, the Second Circuit reversed Weinstein in the so-called light cigarette litigation, decertifying a class of 50 million plaintiffs. And today, the court tossed out New York City?s lawsuit accusing the gun industry of selling firearms with the knowledge they can be diverted into illegal markets.
